The Jazz & Blues Recommendation Thread (funk, punk)

OccultHawk · 06-27-2017, 05:14 PM

I love this record and I was wondering if anyone might have a recommendation for something similar I may have missed.

Difficult question and the only real answer is more Miles Davis.

I always thought that Innercity Ensemble carried on Davis' ideas from that time period and spat them through the lens of a post-Supersilent world. There's always other fusion artists which you've probably already explored, Zawinul's early work and Coryell's Spaces are similar in some ways, but Miles really made it his own.

Not exactly Miles but have you heard the album Terje Rypdal, Miroslav Vitous, Jack Dejohnette?

It was proceeded by Kilamanjaro and followed by Bitches Brew so if there's another Miles record with that sort of proto-ambient style what is it? I haven't listened to everything they've released of his but pretty damn close.

Coryell's Spaces

I think this is one I should know but I don't. Just scanning it on Spotify, sounds brilliant. Thank you.

No I haven't, thanks.

Check out Big Fun, I'm listening to it for the first time right now and it's ****ing great. On the Corner is pretty sweet but it's much more funky and doesn't have as much variety as some of the other albums. Be sure to check out the complete In a Silent Way and Bitches Brew sessions too. This is pretty different from In a Silent Way but I've always loved Live - Evil. Just listen to it all, dude.

Since it's your thread, I'll dump some Spotify links:
Miles Davis - Big Fun
Miles Davis - On the Corner
Miles Davis - The Complete In a Silent Way Sessions
Miles Davis - The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions
Miles Davis - Live - Evil

I appreciate it. I am familiar with all that stuff.

Ja I realized after I posted it that I had misread your post a bit.

Still, Recollections is basically Music for Airports' dad.

Get Up With It

Quote:

Most of the 1973-75 material on The Complete On the Corner Sessions sounds tame by comparison to those three albums.But the box set also contains Davis's acid-funk band's only studio album, Get Up With It, which includes a meditational homage to Duke Ellington, He Loved Him Madly - a half-hour-long track that Brian Eno has quoted as a major influence on his ambient direction.
